The Southern HII Region Discovery Survey I: The Bright Catalog
Trey V. Wenger, John. M. Dickey, C. H. Jordan +7
The census of Galactic HII regions is vastly incomplete in the Southern sky. We use the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) to observe 4-10 GHz radio continuum and hydrogen ra…
A Galactic Plane Defined by the Milky Way HII Region Distribution
L. D. Anderson, Trey V. Wenger, W. P. Armentrout +2
We develop a framework for a new definition of the Galactic midplane, allowing for tilt (rotation about Galactic azimuth 90deg.), and roll (rotation about Galactic azimuth 0deg.) o…
Green Bank Telescope Observations of 3He+: HII Regions
Dana S. Balser, T. M. Bania
During the era of primordial nucleosynthesis the light elements 2H, 3He, 4He, and 7Li were produced in significant amounts and these abundances have since been modified primarily b…
Science with an ngVLA: Radio Recombination Lines from HII Regions
Dana S. Balser, L. D. Anderson, T. M. Bania +4
The ngVLA will create a Galaxy-wide, volume-limited sample of HII regions; solve some long standing problems in the physics of HII regions; and provide an extinction-free star form…
Hydrogen Radio Recombination Line Emission from M51 and NGC628
Matteo Luisi, L. D. Anderson, T. M. Bania +3
We report the discovery of hydrogen radio recombination line (RRL) emission from two galaxies with star formation rates (SFRs) similar to that of the Milky Way: M51 and NGC628. We…
Kinematic Distances: A Monte Carlo Method
Trey V. Wenger, Dana S. Balser, L. D. Anderson +1
Distances to high mass star forming regions (HMSFRs) in the Milky Way are a crucial constraint on the structure of the Galaxy. Only kinematic distances are available for a majority…
